Feiner, Susan F.
Journal of Economic Education, v24 n2 p145-62 Spr 1993
Reports on a study of introductory college economics textbooks on the quality and quantity of coverage of the economic status of women and minorities. Finds that textbooks still have a tendency to exclude women and minorities from the general discussion and disguise the multiplicity of explanations for observed differences. (CFR)
